How to replace Flexible Footer widget area in Wellness Pro with traditional Footer widgets

Has anyone used the Wellness Pro theme and figured out a way to get the default way to configure the footer widgets? I don't like the way this theme does it.

Wellness Pro uses a custom Footer widget area and automatically displays the contents in columns depending on how many widgets are placed in the widget area.

In this tutorial, we are going to replace the above with 2 (can be 3 or 4 or more as well) standard Genesis footer widget areas, Footer 1 and Footer 2 and use Flexbox to display the widgets placed in these widget areas side-by-side.
